I know Wii original plays Gamecube games, but still nothing beats playing it on the original system. Especially when some games connect with the Game boy advance. I remember playing the Zelda game that was a link between the two.

As much love as I have for the NES and SNES, one thing will always stick with me is when I first laid eyes on our brand new N64. I remember coming home from school and seeing my brother and sister in the living room already playing Mario Kart on it. Boy was I excited, and f*ck yes was I jealous because I had to do homework first.

So N64 has to be my favorite. I was like 8 when it came out, so I was young but old enough to understand just how awesome that machine was at the time. It was also the last Nintendo console I ever owned, so that also makes it more special as it signified and end to an era for me.

I grew up with NES and SNES, I've got to say SNES. The titles it had: Legend of Zelda: A Link To the Past, Super Mario All Stars, Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, Donkey Kong Country 1,2,&3, Final Fight 1,2,&3, Street Fighter 2 (any version), Earthworm Jim, Kirby Superstar, Super Castlevania 4, Super Metroid, Killer Instinct, Mortal Kombat 2, the list goes on. Of course N64 had Goldeneye, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and Mario Kart 64, but in my opinion the list pales in comparison to Super Nintendo, as does the controller. I was not a fan of the N64 Controller. Though N64's controller was no where near as bad as the Lamecube's. This journey down memory lane makes me wonder if I should mod my original Xbox. Hmm... I don't know. I'm afraid I'd just f*ck it up somehow

The N64 had some really really awesome stuff but I think it's downfall was the PS1, and that too also had amazing exclusives.

I think if it wasn't for the PS1 the N64 would have been the king easily and we could have had cartidge games for a lot longer, the N64 could have even surpassed the SNES. It just arrived a tiny bit too late to beat out competition from the PS1.

Sper Mario 64.Ocarina of time.Goldeneye.Perfect Dark.Majoras mask.Shadowman.THQ wrestling games like No Mercy.The list goes on. N64 undoubtedly the best console. Anyone who disagrees is likely too young to know.

SNES had Donkey King Country, which blew my mind. N64 had Golden Eye, which was awesome, but by that time I was burned out on Mario and Link, who looked kinda gay in 3D imho. I quickly gravitated to PS1 with Twisted Metal, Tomb Raider, Metal Gear Solid, etc.

The Nintendo 64 was definitely the best for me, I loved Mario-Kart on that thing. I enjoyed it a fair bit on the Wii as well because I played both of those with mates.

Nintendo seem to be very much hit and miss, with the exception of NES and SNES. 64 was a hit, Gamecube miss, Wii Hit, Wii-U miss (Althought Xbox one is helping its case a lot).Nintendo consoles, I dunno, they should release them less often so people get a craving for mario and Zelda again.

Nintendo has dominated handheld gaming though, see their problem lately is releasing weak consoles, conversely Sony's problem is releasing overpriced handhelds. If Sony made cheaper handhelds and Nintendo made more powerful consoles, they might strike a balance.

However at the same time, having a weaker console does well in some cases Ie; Wii. So perhaps my first suggestion was better, release less often. Wii-U's poor sales may have been partly due to confusing marketing, the targeted crowd of young kid's parents probably thought the Wii-U was just an add on for the the Wii.

deff N64. but honestly at the state that nintendo is now i think they should seriously consider becoming a 3rd party dev. the wii was a failure to hardcore gaming market and WII U was a failure as a whole.

The wii was the most popular of the generation though, as far as a business goes that's not even close to a failure, I think doing something different is great. I enjoyed the Wii because games were fun, the graphics were sh*t and I know that's the only reason you don't like it. But gameplay is fun. My issue with it was lack of titles.

SNES had Donkey King Country, which blew my mind. N64 had Golden Eye, which was awesome, but by that time I was burned out on Mario and Link, who looked kinda gay in 3D imho. I quickly gravitated to PS1 with Twisted Metal, Tomb Raider, Metal Gear Solid, etc.

I was considering putting my fav Nintendo game, which is Super Mario 3.Loved my nes, never had a snes, but I just needed the ability to save games which is why I gravitate to N64.

Since the N64 was my first console, I'm going to be a bit basis towards it. It had some of my favorite games growing up as a child, like Goldeneye and Majora's Mask.(Which if it was ever remade for the 3DS, I would buy a 3DS in a heartbeat) Never really played any of their home consoles. I do own 2 generations of gameboy and a ds lite.

Gamecube IMO. Just the memories of being 5 playing Spider-Man on it. <3

It hurts my soul to think there's someone who shares a website with me that was 5 when the Gamecube came out. No offense to you, I just feel old as f*ck all of a sudden.

SNES for me. Mostly for Final Fantasy 4-6, Chrono Trigger, and Sim City. The NES was my first console, but the only game on that that I really remember fondly is Joust. All those Mario games were cool, but they've been re-released so many times I hardly associate them with the old system. Never had an N64, and when I played at a friend's place, it was only ever Goldeneye or Pokemon Stadium.

I've never personally owned a Nintendo home console (but I've had pretty much every handheld). The NES was my brother's, and I played my aunt's SNES all the time, but I've never not had an SNES emulator installed so I can enjoy them classic games in their original 16-bit glory.
